Sister Wives star Meri Brown holds nothing back these days as Season 19 of the TLC show draws near

. During the last few seasons, fans watched her go through the motions, but some suggested that’s all she

was doing.

It’s almost as if she would say what she thought she should say. But it looked like she did this to keep with the dramatic storyline spinning at the time.

So, when a few people close to her called her on this, the original matriarch came clean in real-time.

Sister Wives Meri Brown – Yes, She Did That…

In a recent interview, Meri Brown explained how someone close to her asked why she wasn’t being real about how she felt. Then she realized that was what she had done. But she also explained how this affects relationships.

So, it seems the Sister Wives celeb recently revealed how she acted one way but felt another way on the show. And it might also explain why she opened up the floodgates about her relationship with Kody Brown and Robyn Brown.

Meri Gets Real

Meri Brown explained if you don’t show your real self to someone, you can’t expect that relationship to be any good. This seemed to spark the TLC celebrity to knock down the wall that Sister Wives fans suspected she built years ago.

Meri Brown sat with Jenn Sullivan, her best friend, on her Friday with Friends show discussing the importance of this in any meaningful relationship. But this revelation comes on the heels of another interview in which Meri blows the lid off her relationship with Robyn and Kody.

Sister Wives: Robyn Brown – Not Real?

Meri Brown left some Sister Wives fans with their jaws dropping as she answered a question during a recent interview. Viewers watched last season as Robyn Brown went into a tizzy. She reacted this way over the first wife deciding to leave their polygamous marriage.

During an interview, Meri was asked if Robyn wanted her to stay. Robyn acted as if she did on the screen. But Meri surprised the Sister Wives fans with her answer.

Meri Brown said her co-wife sent mixed messages. While she said she wanted her to remain in the marriage, Meri Brown saw other things that suggested that wasn’t the case.

Robyn dropped little blurbs to Meri over the last few seasons about Kody wanting her to stay. But fans saw this as cruel because Kody made himself clear, he was done with Meri.

So, it seems that “best friend” relationship Meri and Robyn once shared on the Sister Wives show is no longer intact. But she is cordial to her ex-husband and his now-only wife when, on occasion, they see each other.

And when Season 19 rolls out, Meri and the rest of the now-defunct Sister Wives family all get some airtime. That includes a few times together, but all the spouses appear in the new TLC season.
